The rematch between Wladimir Klitschko and Anthony Joshua can take place in one of the five countries of the world.

This was told by the promoter of British boxer Eddie Hearn.

According to Hearn, as places for a possible rematch are not only China and Wales.

"We are thinking about China and Cardiff, but we are also considering options with a fight in Las Vegas, Dubai or Qatar. If you are offered big money, then the desire to hold a rematch will be even greater. But it must be a really worthwhile offer. By the end of June we must already understand where to move, "- said Hearn.

The promoter hopes that if Vladimir agrees to a rematch, it will be possible to delay the obligatory protection of the Joshua belt of the IBF in a fight with Kubrat Pulyov.

"We could convince Pula to wait a little, if we agree on the second fight with Klitschko. I talked with the promoter of Poole Kalle Sauerland, with whom we are well acquainted.

If we again get a fight against Klitschko, then we either give up the IBF title or negotiate with Poole. But sooner or later Anthony will have to fight with Poolev. If the fight with Poolev will not be the next for Anthony, he will fight with him after the fight with Klitschko, "- said Hearn.

Recall that on the night of April 29 to 30 at Wembley Stadium Klitschko in the 11th round ahead of schedule lost to Joshua. In this fight at stake were the championship belts by versions IBF, IBO and WBA.
